Since I moved to Portugal, about six months ago, I have been having issues with my old moblie phone which is an old buddy now. There are a lot apps I can't use and also it's running a lot slow. So that the decision to buy a new one came to my mind. The problem is that everything is so expensive here and the worst part is that I need to pay in Euros. So definitely that will cost me an arm and a leg.

Here in Brazil, anyone who wants to practice American football has to buy their own equipment. But the equipment costs an arm and a leg. My helmet alone cost 2000 reais, and my shoulder pads cost 800 reais. I've spent all my salary buying these. However, I love practicing American football, so I don't regret that.

The students’ mothers got together to buy a present for the teacher.

The responsible one chose a Pandora bracelet as a gift. Oh my god! Even splitting the price of that into 25 mothers, that cost me an arm and a leg.

One morning my son woke up with the idea of buying a gaming PC.

So I told him "IT COSTS AN ARM AND A LEG". How will you buy that?

Then he answered : I get an allowance.. You can increase my allowance and I will add the money...

That's an excellent idea, I said. Save your money until your birthday and I will complete that. His birthday will be in August and I intend to give him the computer as a gift...

I've always dreamed about having an Ipad and I was trying to save money to buy one. But it was never enough and I was feeling blue because of that. Then one day my mother saw how I was and said, "My dear, that Ipad you want costs an arm and a leg. Maybe you should let it go and have another alternative." I think my mother is right. I must be a down to earth person and find another alternative.

I have two friends that have a lot of money. One day, they invited me to have dinner with them in an expensive restaurant named Mocellin. I thought... Ok, I need to save some money for that.

When we had the dinner, they started ordering a lot of wines and the conversation was very good, but my brain just thinking of the bill... At the end, this adventure cost me an arm and a leg.

Taylor Swift is a very famous singer and I like a few of her songs, but my friend Mari is obsessed with her. She does love her music and is a big fan. So, as soon as she heard that there would be concert here in Rio, she freaked out! She bought the tickets and told me how happy she was. She was finally going to see a Taylor Swift concert! I was very happy for her, but when I saw the price, I told her "Oh my God! That cost an arm and a leg!"
